 “We area on the right track. I know we aren’t in the league table, but there was a lot of good in that performance. It showed a lot of the work we have been putting in.

“Statistically we know it's not. Yet, we gave a very thorough performance there. But it’s parked very quickly because it doesn’t guarantee the next one. We have to make sure we use it wisely, lock in all the positives but we have to go and deliver it again. It can’t just be once every few games, there has to be consistency.”
